Bless you for taking such sweet care of this hen & for telling us about her. I have a little chick hatched yesterday leans to one side & eye seems smaller & closed more often on that side. It's useful to hear what you've done for her.

She is doing great this morning! Both eyes are open and bright. So far so good!

Just wanted to give you the happy update! (crossing your fingers really works

)

So glad to hear it!
I forgot to mention a little story I told awhile back. I have always put Lil'Bit on the roost at night and even made a special nest box for her on the floor, figuring she couldn't get to the other boxes. Well I caught her in the act and she can get on a roost by herself now AND get to the regular nest boxes, but she still likes me to do it for her. I'm sure your little chick will be just as special as my Lil'Bit is.

Thank you so much gritsar. Squirt is doing great and seems to see just fine. What ever was wrong seems to have taken care of itself. Thank you for your kind words and support.

Say hi to Lil Bit!
